At six o'clock in the evening, Xiaoyu and Xiaohu were sent back to Dequlou by Dahua Company's car, in addition to bringing back a lot of fresh ingredients, there are also many rumors in the market.

For example, at about 1 o'clock this afternoon, 26 Japanese planes attacked Chongqing in a dense formation, and the Chinese Air Force took off to meet the enemy, although it shot down 2 Japanese planes, other Japanese planes invaded the urban area and dropped more than 100 bombs, and Daliangzi, Cangping Street, Zuoying Street, and Shaanxi Street were all blown up and caught fire. According to incomplete statistics, 673 citizens were killed and 350 were injured. This is the first time that a Japanese bombing has caused more than 1,000 casualties among Chinese civilians.

This news made Li Junhao's face change greatly, he remembered, this day is just the beginning, tomorrow there will be 27 Japanese planes again air raids, Chongqing urban area was bombed and fired, Duyou Street, Chaijia Lane was destroyed, 3,318 residents were killed, 1,937 were injured.

On May 3 and 4, 1939, the bombers of the Japanese Naval Air Force took off from Wuhan and continuously bombed the downtown area of CQ, and used a large number of incendiary bombs, causing the city center to burn for two days, 19 of the 27 main streets in the city were bombed into rubble, 3,991 people were killed, 2,323 people were injured, 4,889 buildings were damaged, and about 200,000 people were homeless; The Luohan Temple and Chang'an Temple were also engulfed in flames, and at the same time, foreign churches, Britain, France, and other foreign embassies in China were bombed, and even the German embassy with the Nazi flag was not spared.

Guo Moruo wrote a poem "Miserable Eyes" on May 12, recording the barbaric atrocities of the Japanese Air Force: "On May 3rd and May Fourth, Yucheng was tragically bombed in the past few days, and the dead were like a mountain pile. I saw a corpse, a mother and two orphans, one of whom was under the abdomen, and one of whom was holding his right arms. Flesh and bone become charcoal, condensation is difficult to separate, crying out the heart of a mother, and it cannot be gray for eternity. And the inscription: "The dead are tired, and they are seen everywhere, so that they will not forget." ”

-----------------

Li Junhao's heart throbbed, and he immediately picked up the phone and dialed Wen Qiang, saying, "Brother Nianwu, I got some new California lager beer, do you want to try it?" ”

Xiaohu and Li Xiaoyu, who were in the living room, were stunned when they heard this, and some wondered why he invited someone to drink; Li Xiaoyu paused, got up and walked to the kitchen, and told Xiaoyu to add two dishes today. Yuri on the side couldn't understand Chinese and didn't know what was going on.

Half an hour later, Wen Qiang hurried to the driver with the driver, just in time for dinner, and just about to say hello, Li Junhao pulled the handle to the second floor......

Ten minutes later, Wen Qiang came down from upstairs and bowed to Li Junhao, who was already sitting at the dining table, and said, "Brother Junhao, I thank ...... for thousands of people."

"Don't say that!" Li Junhao helped him up and pulled him to the table, "I just did what anyone with a conscience would do." Nian Wu, don't think about it, do things but do your best, as for the result, you can only let God decide! Come, drink! ”

"Yes, it is up to people to do things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen, and we just do our best. Drink! Wen Qiang raised his glass to meet him and took a big sip, but he was really grateful to the other party in his heart. Just now, Li Junhao told him the information that the Japanese planes would bomb Chongqing again tomorrow, and asked him to use the radio in the study to send a report directly to the headquarters.

Yuri, who was at the table, looked at the two of them with heavy expressions, and was very puzzled, so he could only ask for help from Teacher Li next to him. Li Xiaoyu explained to him in English what happened this afternoon, and Yuri was very angry when he heard that the civilian area of Chongqing was bombed by Japanese planes, and he also scolded the Japanese devils......

-----------------

Chongqing Luojiawan, Military Command Office, after Dai Li saw the information sent by Wen Qiang, he did not dare to slack off, and immediately rushed to Huangshan in Jiangbei by car to report to the official residence in person.

When the commander saw this information, he immediately personally called General Liu Zhi, commander-in-chief of the Chongqing garrison and commander of air defense, and ordered him to immediately organize the evacuation of residents in the urban area and strengthen air defense vigilance......

Seeing that the old man was happy, Dai Li took the opportunity to report the material exchange plan that Wen Qiang had sent the day before yesterday, and the chief only agreed to it after a little consideration, and specially took out 2 million fiat currency from his special fee to allocate to Dai Li, so that he could do a good job in this barter transaction.

Dai Li left the Huangshan Mansion satisfied, and with the old man's consent, he could free his hands and feet to collect materials in the Guotong area, which he used to complete the barter trade, and he would definitely make a lot of money; The 2 million fiat currency allocated by the old man was a surprise.

In August of the 27th year of the Republic of China (1938), the Special Service Office of the Fuxingshe-Lixing Society (the second division of the Survey and Statistics Bureau of the former Military Commission of the National Government) was upgraded and expanded into the Survey and Statistics Bureau of the Military Commission (hereinafter referred to as the Military Command) under the General Office of the Military Commission. (According to the usual practice, the director of the first division of the chairman's chamberlain is concurrently the director of the chief of the military command bureau and is not responsible for actual work.) ）

Up to now (May 1939), the Military Command Bureau has expanded to eight departments, six offices, and one office, and has dispatched hundreds of districts, stations, and groups stationed abroad in various regions, provinces, and municipalities. In the Kuomintang area, in addition to the special stationed agencies, secret agents also infiltrated the Kuomintang's army, police, administrative organs, transportation and other departments to monitor and control; In the occupied areas, there were stationed agencies to carry out underground struggles, mainly to obtain information and assassinate Japanese puppet personnel, and there were also guerrilla units behind enemy lines such as the "Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army......

At present, there are more than 30,000 officially registered personnel, plus secret intelligence personnel, peripheral personnel, affiliated military personnel, etc., the actual number of people is more than 150,000, and the amount of funds required is staggering, but the monthly fixed amount of funds allocated by the Ministry of Finance was 50,000 yuan in August 1938; In April this year, it was 60,000 yuan! It's like a joke! If it weren't for Chairman Chiang's private allocation of special fees to Dai Li, it would not have been possible to maintain it at all.

In order to raise funds, Dai Li used all methods, such as opening factories, setting up companies, smuggling materials, trafficking opium, etc., even so, they often failed to operate, and had to borrow money from banks temporarily! For this reason, Dai Li has been working hard to make friends with Song Ziwen, a bigwig in the financial industry, and maintain a good relationship. The last 5,000 pieces of cotton yarn were sold to the Song family's textile factory at a low price (800 fiat currency/piece), although it made less money, but deepened the cooperation between the two sides.

Now with the old man's permission, Dai Li can expand the smuggling behavior, which is what makes him happiest.
